Cat Sitting in Altavista

“Caitlin did an amazing job taking care of my cats while I was away for the weekend! The litter boxes were clean and I really appreciated the pictures she took for me. She even let me know about a downed tree that was on the driveway to my house. I’d recommend and let her watch my kitties again in a heartbeat”

“Emma was wonderful with our cat Prudence. We met beforehand and I could see how much she loves cats! Emma was sweet and gentle and was very responsible. I would not hesitate to book her for your pet. I felt comfortable leaving my pet with her and trust her with locking up my house as well. You will love her!!”

“Thank you to Lauren for the drop-in on my 3 pups. She had to contend with a rainy day in which 2 of my 3 have to be coaxed outside in the rain! Appreciate her patience and would recommend her to others.”

“Anna house sat and pet sat for my 3 cats. She did a great job, and even my very shy cat made more appearances than usual. The house was clean, the cats were happy, and I felt that I had a very responsible person that I could depend on.”

“Tiffany was fabulous! My skittish cockapoo fell in love with her. That's saying a lot about the person she is with dogs. My two pugs couldn't get enough of her. Definitely a great dog sitter!!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the personal care and attention I give to each pet I look after. Even though I’m fairly new to professional pet-sitting, I’ve already built great connections with the pets and families I’ve worked with. I take the time to learn each animal’s routine, personality, and quirks so they feel comfortable and cared for while their people are away As a high school teacher, I’m naturally organized, dependable, and used to managing busy schedules - which makes pet care a seamless and rewarding part of my routine. I typically pet-sit on weekends, holidays, and during school breaks, but I’m also available for morning, evening, and overnight visits during the school year. Caring for animals is a wonderful balance to my teaching job; it gives me a chance to slow down, connect with pets, and enjoy quieter moments in my day. Whether it’s early morning feedings or evening playtime, I’m always happy to work pet care into my daily routine because it’s something I genuinely love doing. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, my goal is to keep their routine as familiar and stress-free as possible. I take the time to learn each pet’s schedule, favorite activities, and little quirks so they feel comfortable while their family is away. Whether it’s regular feedings, playtime, medication, or just quiet companionship, I’m there to provide the care and attention they’re used to. I also make sure to keep the home clean, safe, and tidy — including bringing in mail, watering plants, and maintaining a secure, lived-in feel. I believe pets do best in their own space with someone who treats them like family, and that’s the kind of care I strive to provide with every stay.

About: I’ve been in a constant home of taking care of animals from a young age. I’ve trained over 6 dogs for basic training and have homed three cats. I’m versatile when it comes to new puppies as well as senior dogs. I’m a part time student so I’m mostly free in the evenings on weekdays and the weekends. For stop-bys and walks, I’m also free anytime before 9 am. In my own home I’ve got a lot of land for my own pets to roam within our land boundaries. Walking is a big part of giving pets time for exercise as well as calmer inside moments along with breakfast and dinner. Taking animals on rides to introduce them to different aspects of our world (exposure- therapy).

“BOOK HER! Amber was very nice and took great care of my 3 cats while we were on vacay for a week. She brought in my mail, packages and left my house as clean as it was when I left. I will definitely book her in the future. She also communicated quickly and took pictures! Thank you, Amber.”

“Paige was wonderful! She came to our rescue when we needed someone to watch our cat last-minute, and Winnie warmed up to her in no time! 😄 We’ll definitely be booking her again in the future.”

About: I’ve had pets of all sizes, shapes, and needs. I’d love to take your dog for a walk, feed your bearded dragon, or snuggle with your cat. Working from home allows me the flexibility to give special attention or break for a walk any time of day! Your pet will love laying at my feet, exploring my fenced in back yard, or getting some exercise on a walk around town. I have a fenced in yard and an old, friendly dog and 3 cautious cats to keep your pet company. Your pet will have run of the house like they’re at home. I am happy to crate your pet if that is your preference.

“You need animal care look no further. Nicole is outstanding! Very passionate about animals I will most definitely use her for future visits. Very recommended. Thank you again Nicole outstanding Communication and Amazing photos. I had no worries while in her care..”

“We are very thankful for Isa! Not only did she make herself available without much notice, but her professionalism, ,skill and kindness as she interacts with animals and their parents is what we all hope to find in a pet sitter. When we do find such a gem, we want to stay connected to such a wonderful person who takes such good care of our baby. We found a wonderful sitter last year who always takes care of our girl, but sometimes our last-minute request find her not available. We never thought we could ever find someone to trust since our usual sitter goes so above and beyond. I’m so thankful to be proven wrong by finding Isa! Thank you, Isa for taking care of our little old girl. She was very happy and secure and your photography of her will always be treasured! We hope that you’ll be available for future visits.”

About: Quiet Country setting for your pet. My husband and I have taken care of dogs and cats since we were around 10 years old. We have helped with various breeds and sizes. From as small as chihuahua and pug, up to shepherds and Labrador retrievers. We currently have two dogs of our own that we adore! We treat all dogs like they are our children. My husband is currently full time at home 5 days a week so can provide attention and care like we do with our dog. After 4:30pm during the week they will get all the loving and cuddles they want. On the weekends both my husband and I are off so can provide care during the whole day. Our dogs can keep your pet company they love all dogs and cats. They will have the comfort of cuddling on pet pillows or even cuddling on the couch with us. I(Kristen) currently work full time but my husband(Samuel) is currently full time at home so he can provide all day care. Once I'm off at 4:30pm both can provide care. On weekends we are available all day. We can offer daily exercise like walks on a leash due we have a nice big yard but do not have a fenced in yard. Also could crate if needed. At client's home would provide exercise, play time, and crate if needed.

“Thank you for going above and beyond!”

About: As someone who was raised on a fully functioning farm, animal husbandry has been a part of my daily routine since I could walk! I have experience with almost every domestic animal under the sun, but dogs and cats have always been very personal to me. I would love to extend my love for pets to you and your fur family by caring for them as I would my own. Caring for pets is my full time job! I am highly flexible and usually able to accommodate whatever you and your furbabies need. When house sitting, I will need to leave at least once a day to check in at my house, but otherwise your pets have my full attention. I want your pets to be safe and happy. I am willing to take on whatever routine you have established to make your time away as easy on your pets as possible. Safety and fun are my top priorities!

“Nick was amazing with our cat! She is very shy, but Nick made us feel comfortable leaving her for the Holidays ? We left her in great hands. Thank you so much Nick!”

About: I have always had a love for animals. I worked in the veterinary field for about 10 years. I have owned animals of my own since I was a small child. I aspire one day to become a certified dog trainer. I have pet sit everything from cats and dogs to goats and sheep. I do work full time but my father lets the dogs out at lunch time. I’m home by 5:30 so if it’s at my house it will be able to play from when I get home until the next morning. If the pet is not staying with me I will go before and after work and stay over if need be. My pets are extremely well cared for. Up to date on all vaccinations and flea medications. They all get plenty of exercise and have free range of the house when someone is home. They sleep in bed with me at night. I have a large fenced in yard for them to play. They are crated when someone is not home for their safety and to keep them out of trouble.

“Charles was above and beyond what we expected. We have an English Bulldog, and he whined when he left. It was obvious he really does love animals and treats them with respect. He sent us updates throughout our absence, and kept in close contact. 5-star rating from us and highly recommended.”

About: I was raised around animals of all kinds. I have experience with puppies, kittens, adult cats and dogs, as well as, senior pets. I have spent time working in a professional dog boarding/daycare facility, and I have gained experiences in dog behaviors, interactions, and care. I can administer medication and follow any special meal requirements including special diets or any special feeding routines or habits. I am comfortable with cats of all sociability and dogs of all kinds. No one is too big or too small! I am at home full time caring for my nieces and nephew ages 2, 10, and 14. I do prefer that any guests are friendly with children, cats, and dogs, but I do have space to separate if needed. I have a flexible schedule and am willing to work around yours! I am also available early mornings and late nights to help you provide your pet the best care. Ensuring the safety of your pet is my top priority. I will follow any instructions exactly. I will take extra care with reactive dogs and make sure that I am aware of all triggers and rules that you may have for your pet. I will follow rules you have for your pets how I would want someone to follow mine.
